Bond of the Elements (Book 1 in the BOE Trilogy)

Something is up...

::Everly's POV::

I bet Kamer and I were thinking the same thing when Quinn walked into first period with the ends of her hair dyed grey and steel grey eyes to match.

That's not Quinn.

She walked up and smiled. "Hi guys! What's up?" She stood on her seat then sat down, facing us.

It sounded like her, it had the same personality as her, but it couldn't, Quinn wouldn't do anything with with the color grey. Kamer and I looked at each other, then came up with a plan.

Act like we thought it was the real her.

"Hey! I love the new hair!" Kamer grinned.

"Thanks, I got it done last night, I thought it looked great! Plus, I decided I'd put in colored contacts in to match," She pointed to her eyes.

"Hey look, here comes Cassidy!" I said.

I looked at Cassidy, who stopped and looked wide eyes and said something no one could here.

"Quinn, may I talk to you alone?" She said.

"Um... Sure?" Quinn looked at us and rolled her eyes.

Then she got up and followed Cassidy outside.

--Cassidy's POV--

I brang 'Quinn' outside.

I turned and said, "Get out of my friends head!" I grabbed her by the collar.

"Woah, woah, woah! Listen, I just wanna see what it's like for my sister at school, plus she is fine! She's just locked up in the dungeons of my castle in the dark kingdom!" She put her hands up in surrender. 

"We are coming to free her! And you can't stop us!" I let go and glared at 'Quinn'.

She chuckled. "Good luck, the dark kingdom is covered in dangerous monsters, you will die before you are able to get to her!" She smirked.

"Are you sure she's ok?" I had to resist punching her.

"Yeah, she's fine," 'Quinn' lifted up a hand and snapped, showing an imagine of a certain strawberry blonde leaning on a dungeon wall, staring a head, muttering.

"What's she saying?"

"She's just ranting about being blind, I kinda sorta took her glasses."

I stormed back into the classroom and took my seat. I looked at Kamer and Everly, who had a look of concern on their face, and by the looks of it, they knew what my facial expression was saying. We're going to get the real Quinn back.

;;;Quinn's POV;;;

I could barely see in front of me. I heard the drip drop of water, and the echo of other prisoners sobs. Yeah, it was a dark place, but it felt nice to finally be able to stop acting happy. My friends thought I was always happy, but really I was annoyed with them. They had better grades. They always got better scores than me on tests. Maybe I would switch over to the dark side for a while, give it a try.

I looked down and saw I had a different dress on, it was black and flowed behind me, it wasn't frilly like my other dresses, but slim, and fit perfectly.

I heard the sobs had stopped. I soon realized why. He was walking down the corridor.

I stared at him and he stopped in front of my cell. He had on all black, like usual, and a cape that flowed behind him.

"What's up, Lucas?" I smirked as he scowled at that name.

"Don't call me that!" He ran his hand on the cell bars, making it ring throughout the dungeon.

"Ok, ok... What's up Bro?" He smirked.

"So... Are you ready to give in to the dark side?" I saw a glint in his eyes, as he lowered his head, I saw his eyes glowed red for a while.

"Yeah, yeah, I'll give it a try. Plus I'm loving this outfit!" I grinned.

"Come with me, Quinn, and we can rule the world!" He clapped and the cell door opened.

I walked out and he handed me a pair of black glasses, we shared an evil smile. We walked out of the dungeons..The other prisoners pleaded at me to let the go, but I flicked my hand at them, sending some of my wind magic at them, making them hiss as the powerful spell hit them.

Forget about the old, smiling, happy me. This is the new me.
